During last week’s Fox News GOP debate in Detroit, Donald Trump was confronted by anchor Megyn Kelly about Trump University.
Trump claimed during the debate Trump University received an A-rating from the Better Business Bureau. As Kelly pointed out in an exchange with Trump at the debate, that is false. Trump then claimed the BBB faxed him in the middle of the debate to confirm the A-rating. They didn’t. Trump’s people handed moderators a sheet of paper and claimed it was from the BBB to verify the A-rating. It wasn’t.
Trump University came under fire more than a decade ago when thousands of students issued complaints about fraud in the program. Turns out, Trump University was a massive scam.
Trump University was never a university. When the “school” was established in 2005, the New York State Education Department warned that it was in violation of state law for operating without a NYSED license. Trump ignored the warnings. (The institution is now called, ahem, “Trump Entrepreneur Initiative.”) Cue lawsuits.
Trump University is currently the defendant in three lawsuits — two class-action lawsuits filed in California, and one filed in New York by then-attorney general Eric Schneiderman, who told CNN’s New Day in 2013: “We started looking at Trump University and discovered that it was a classic bait-and-switch scheme. It was a scam, starting with the fact that it was not a university.”
Today, the BBB is confirming that they a) did not fax Trump in the middle of the debate b) Trump University did in fact receive a D- rating and didn’t improve to an A-rating until nearly 10 years after it was established. From a statement releasedby BBB (bolding is mine):

In reference to Trump’s campaign manager coming onstage at the last debate, which is forbidden…and Trump saying that the BBB had just faxed him his rating, correcting Megan Kelly…..!
LIAR! He has been caught in another show of deceit! What a dishonest man….and they want this man as our leader? What would distinguish him from Obama?
